At least in the UK and US it seems impossible to be a leading politician without admitting to some kind of god love.
Imagine voting in someone who is an atheist?
It always depresses me in that most people in the UK aren't actively religious, but presumably it affects your perceived credibility if you aren't a theist.

Of course I know this will never be the case!
What the fuck difference does it make if you are religious or not? Why do you have to come out with some bullshit religious beliefs in order to be taken seriously?
I think it is more important to the american electorate, and it worries me how much influence religion has over politicians!
